“We’re here,” Paco told Laura a couple of hours later. Thankfully, she’d become quiet the last few miles of this trek. She had to be exhausted, but she’d been a trooper. He admired her determination.

“I see civilization,” she said, happiness shining in her eyes. “I can’t wait to have a nice long shower.”

“That might be a while. This is just the first part of our journey.”

He ignored her groan and instead concentrated on scoping the tiny village where Shane told him a used pickup from a local dealer would be waiting. Shane had arranged that over the Internet and phone, so Paco trusted their mode of transportation would indeed be here.

He stopped Laura before they emerged onto the lonely road cutting a patchy gray ribbon through the craggy hills.

“Okay, here’s the deal. See that gas station over there.”

She nodded. “The one with the red stripes.”

“The only one in town, sweetheart.”

“Got it. Gas station.”

“See the blue truck parked by the road?”

“Yes. Is that our truck?”

“Should be. Let me see if I can get a line out to Eagle Rock.” He pulled out his phone and hit an app. “Signal looks good.”

While he waited for Shane to answer, he said, “Drink,” and shoved the canteen at her. Then he motioned toward her small backpack. “Eat a power bar.”

Laura rolled her eyes, but did as he asked.

The Knight answered on the first ring. “Warwick.”

“We’ve made it. Blue truck?”

“That’s the one. The keys are under the seat.”

“How high-tech of you.”

“It’s the middle of nowhere, old boy. And it was the best deal I could make over the net.”

“Looks like a keeper.”

“Did anyone follow you?”

“Not that I can tell. Everything’s cool right now.”

“Good. But, Warrior, I need to tell you something. You might want to keep this information from Laura. I’ll let you decide.”
